Category: None Group: Python 2.3 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: munder12 (munder12) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: garbage collection asserts failing Initial Comment: Modules/gcmodule.c:294: visit_reachable: Assertion `gc_refs > 0 || gc_refs == (-3) || gc_refs == (-2)' failed. Running Python 2.3.4 on Fedora Core 3 (2.6.11-1.35_FC3smp). Also tried Python 2.3.5. When searching Google for this error, found following link where someone using yum updates was getting same error from python http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=54704 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Tim Peters (tim_one) Date: 2005-07-20 17:24 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=31435 Well, this isn't enough info to go on. For example, what program was Python running at the time? What were you doing? How could anyone else try to reproduce this? It's certainly not something Python normally does ;-) FWIW, the most likely cause is bad C coding in a Python extension (non-core) module. That the problem persists for you across Python versions points even more at non-core C code. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Neil Schemenauer (nascheme) Date: 2005-07-20 17:20 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=35752 Usually this kind of error is caused by a bug in a 3rd party extension module. Try to narrow down the test case as much as possible. Can you provide a Python script that triggers the assertion failure? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: munder12 (munder12) Date: 2005-07-20 17:15 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1156202 This also fails in Python 2.4.1 on same system. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1241545&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
